It is an interesting exercise to taste common salt alongside Maldon Salt. The common salt sits uncomfortably on the tongue and has an underlying bitterness. Maldon Salt is milder, has the flavour of sea spray and is free from the chemical tang of common salt.
Unlike most salts containing additives to stop them caking in damp weather, Maldon Salt is a completely natural product, retaining valuable sea water trace-elements.
Salt has always played an important role in the everyday life of man for both flavouring and preserving his food.
The offering of salt became a symbol of friendship and trust. To describe someone as 'salt of the earth' or 'worth his salt' shows something of the respect with which this magical white substance is held. The word 'salary' comes from the Latin 'salarium' when Roman soldiers received part of their pay to buy salt.
The English coastal town of Maldon, Essex, has been the centre of a salt producing area since the middle ages, although legend has it that the secret of salt-making from sea water was discovered here over 2,000 years ago when the Romans ruled Britain.
The Maldon Crystal Salt Company is still a small family concern operating from a riverside site it has occupied for more than a hundred years and continues to develop the traditional saltmaker's craft to produce the soft white flaky crystals unique to this area.
